  • Patent number: 10521416
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method is provided, for retrieving data and metadata according to a data harvesting criteria into an indexed repository, comprising providing a user interface allowing a user to define data harvesting criteria for adjusting a subset of data and metadata on an indexed repository. Responsive to a user utilizing the user interface by defining the data harvesting criteria, the subset of data and metadata on the indexed repository is adjusted according to the data harvesting criteria.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9767222
    Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a system selects member objects from among data objects stored in one or more data sources by evaluating criteria against information about the data objects in an index, wherein the information about the data objects in the index is derived from the data sources. The system creates a set of data objects comprising a collection of references to the selected member objects, and associates the set with a set-identifier. The system receives a request to apply an action to a subset of the data objects stored in the one or more data sources, wherein the request specifies the subset by including the set-identifier, and applies the action to the set of data objects associated with the set-identifier within the request. Embodiments of the present invention further include methods and computer program-products for managing data in substantially the same manners described above.

  • Patent number: 6507898
    Abstract: Apparatus for supplying multiple, separately addressed data items from a data table in external memory. The apparatus comprises a cache memory (230) having n separately addressable memories banks organised as m cache-lines and n programmable address generators (1881) each coupled to a corresponding one of said n memory banks. The generators (1881) using an index to generate multiple addresses to simultaneously retrieve multiple data items from the memory banks. A data organizer (1892) positions the retrieved data in an output packet.

  • Patent number: 6246396
    Abstract: An apparatus for converting an input image in an input color space to an output image in an output color space. The apparatus has a cache memory for storing from external memory, sparsely located output color values corresponding to input pixels closest to the current input pixel of an image stream, if not already present in the cache memory. The apparatus also has retrieval means for retrieving, from said cache memory, the sparsely located output color values corresponding to the current input pixel of the stream. The retrieved output color values are interpolated by interpolation means to derive an output color value in said output color space.
